NAME

       ccmtcnvt - convert C++ comments to C comments

SYNOPSIS

       ccmtcnvt [-hv] [--help] [--version] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  program  converts the C++ style comments into traditional C style
       comments.  C++ allows comments of that begin with ‘//’ and end with the
       next  newline,  but they weren’t introduced to the C language until the
       1999 version of the C  standard.   Some  C  compilers  alre3ady  accept
       these,  but  for  those  who don’t, you can use this utility to convert
       them.

BUGS

       ccmtcnvt assumes that the input is syntactically correct C code (except
       for the comments).
